Jonathan Colaço Carr

Bonjour/Hi!

I'm an incoming PhD student in computer science at Harvard University, where I'll be advised by Prof. Milind Tambe.

I completed my bachelor's and master's degrees at McGill University in mathematics and computer science. During my master's degree, I was lucky to be advised by Prof. Prakash Panangaden and Prof. Doina Precup. Together we designed fast algorithms for decision making from human data. I left McGill during the 2024--2025 academic year, visiting the Center for Human-Compatible AI (UC Berkeley) and then Stanford University for research internships.

I am so grateful to be a graduate student. I get to spend time designing computer programs that serve public interests, often with partner organizations. I've worked with the GovAI Coalition, a network of government officials in the United States who design responsible AI standards, and with the Democratic Engagement Exchange, a non-partisan political group in Canada.

Please feel free to email me if there's anything you'd like to discuss.

Thanks,

Jonathan
